[Miss Lydia]

So sorry but that really does look bad. Hopefully the vet can help.

How is she doing today?

I am SINCERELY amazed, but my dear Phoebe made it through her procedure alive. She is very weak but the vet thought it seemed what would be expected. I will update with some photos soon.

Unfortunately I spoke too soon. Phoebe survived the procedure but died a bit after. I think it was just too much for her body. She was given paid meds so my hope was that she wasn’t in pain.

I am so sorry to hear this. To know she came through and then pass away. I am sad for you.

I'm so very sorry. Hugs to you.

Thanks all. The vet was able to remove an egg that was within the prolapse, reverse the prolapse, and then stitch her closed slightly. We knew it was a long shot but we did our best for her. I think she was just too weak and it was too far advance of a prolapse. We did everything we could do.

 

[Miss Lydia]

You did and I am sure she knew you were trying to help her.
